DONKEY w. II. r.

Oh, mes not in Greece lived Madame
O'Lease,
She fourishes with us today,
Her pen in its might puts the donkeys to
fight
Brayed the donkey, "because," said she,
''Our laws
Teach injustice that sometime shall
cease"
So the donkey who brayed by her pen
For fearless with right is Madame
O'Lease.
Said W. Il. R., ''I'll shine like a star;
I'll chaperone ingalls, right well,
To the Irishwoman bold my mind shall be
For comparing mighty Ingalls, to wealth
er-bel"
Brayed the donkey, Because" etc.
So lie strutted about, and he brayed right
out,
OF his intimacy with the great senator,
And the people derided and quickly decided
A donkey was W. H. RS progenitor.
Braycd the donkey, etc.
And Madame O'Lease she came not from
Greece,
But from Erin's fair isle far away,
Closed up the dispute by chastising the
brute
Till the public heard nothing but bray.
Brayed the donkey because, etc.
In sorrow and pain but also in vain,
Donkey Warinee brayed and he plead.
With logic profound, and with arguments
sound,
Madame Lease is always ahead.
Brayed the donkey because, etc.
And now to his aid comes bachelor staid,
Who gives the poor brute clear away.
"His garments are old, his wife is a scold,
Xanteppe has caused him to bray"
Brayed the donkey because, etc.
All! Donkey Warinee, your mate being a
stonnee,
In hard lines has your brute life been cast,
But do not aspire to acquaintanceship higher
Then the long -eared and bray-voiced rela-
tions of class
Brayed the donkey because, etc.
For as sure as you do, tell to you true,
And l say it serenely in peace,
You'll bray long for pity in our beautiful
city,
The home Of Madame O'Lease
Brayed the donkey, because, etc.

The Republican is DESTROYS of knowing
if Kansas City will continue to hold up St.
Louis as an ideal Such hippancy and
CHASTITY wit is to be seriously deplored in
our venerable contemporary. No; Kansas
City is not looking for an ideal in still life.
Kansas City Times.
The manner in which the Kansas City
Times has recently cast its piscutorial eye
about the state house at Topeka. leads us
to remark that the Times is probably look
ing for an ideal sucker. The agent of that
paper, last week caught some specimens in
this city which were used for bait. The
Times will be able, perhaps, to secure some
ideal specimens at Topeka which it can ex.
hibit in Kansas during future elections to
the great detriment of the Republican
party, and to the great satisfaction of The
Kansas City Times.

ASHLAND.

To the Editor OF the Eagle.
Ashland just now is in the midst OF a
remarkable era of prosperity, though the
recent heavy rail- have very materially
interfered with the progress of the innum-
cradle improvements public and private
now under way. Brickmakers complain
of having been hindered in their work
while the demands for brick require all that
can be manufactured mere this season even
with the large capacity of the several yards.
The contractors this week began the
work of excavating for the foundations for
a three story brick block with frontage of
three hundred feet on Main street, and the
work will be pushed forward with ell pos
sible rapidity
At the school bond election Wednesday
the bond proposition was carried and the
contract for a SIC, 900 school house viii be
let on the Sth inst.
The railroad graders are at work all
along the line between Ashland and the
Comanche county line, though the work
has been considerably interfered with dur
ing the past two weeks by heavy rains.
Memorial day was observed in very
appropriate manner in this city. The
Grafton of the day was delivered by hon.
| Francis c. Price who was followed by W.
Fl. Mccartney, Ben f. Page, 5. A Parish
ley and ". R. Payne in short but appro

THE GOVERNORS TOWN.

The Atchison county attorney informed
the Capital, day before yesterday, that the
prohibition law was enforced as well in
Atchison as in any other city of this state.
Atchison is the home of the governor who
places Wichita under the rule of commits
sion at the instigation of an insignificant
minority, consisting of heaven only knows
who and what. Atchison and Topeka and
hundred other towns in Kansas are too
good to be placed under this quasi martial
law. Now what does Attorney Tufts say
further about Atchison and the prohibition
law. Here are his own words as reported
in the Capital yesterday:
"Zeibold and Hagelins brewery west of
the city has been running openly for the
last month or so. They have been selling
their beer over the city, and delivering the
same by wagons.

EAGLETS.

The highest mountain in the world is
said to be mount Hercules, in New Guinea,
soaring to the altitude of %, 1856 feet.
An item in the Tacoma Ledger says j.
NJ. Steele subscribed fifty dollars for the
Fourth of July celebration at that place.
Big hearted Jim" Steele can always be
counted when something is to be done for
his town.
The new world is not behind the old in
wonders. They have nothing to compare
with our grand Niagra Falls, and as for
Mount Hercules the monumental cheek OF
the Kansas City Times, in sending repor-
ter to Wichita to nose out joints, towers
above mount Hercules in way that lays it
in the shade
The people of Missouri were greatly re-
joiced when they succeeded in breaking up
the James gang of robbers. And now
comes the Winfield Visitor rejoicing with
exceeding great joy. and in faring head
line says that town is no longer at the
mercy of the "Santa Fe Robbers.
There is now some complaint on the
part of our farmers. They say since the
recent rains the corn is growing so rapidly
that in very few days the corn will be
too large to cultivate with the double cult
vators. We must all learn. however, that
we cannot always have things all our own
way.
The wealth to each head of population
is estimated at 1886 in the New England
states and $4S7 in the western states.
When the amount of Indebtedness in the
west held by eastern men is deducted from
our statement the showing will not be
likely to make the west feel above their
eastern cousins in financial way.
The Topeka Capital says Senator ingalls,
does not represent the people of Kansas
The vote of this state at numerous elections
would seem to indicate that he does. He
may, however, fail to represent j. K.
Hudson. 1t is not an easy matter to rep
resent so great man as brother Hudson is
proving himself to be.
The mind of man in its search for truth
is like the majestic flight of the eagle above
the home of the clouds, where the air is
not tainted by malaria of the swamps bnt
the sunshine is reflected in golden splendor
in houndless ETHEREAL fields. The mind
bound as the narrow-minded bigots OF this
state would have it is like the tioundering
of an old goose, pitched out on the prairie
with tow string.
The co untry each day is informed OF the
number of fish the President catches. The
remarkable fact is also given to the country
that ''the President arose early and ate a
hearty breakfast" There is not much
probability, however, that the country will
be shocked by the telegraph even in a
roundabout way intimating that Mr.. Cleve,
land entertains any ideas of craftsmanship.

THE BRAY OF a BRUTE.

To the Editor of the Eagle:
1t is quite gratifying to know that S. r.
is willing to slide out of any appearance of
sympathy for his long cared brother in dis
trcss, as unobtrusively as possible, but he
still worries over the fact that neither he
nor his braying brother received the Stu
dicious application of soft-soap," which he
evidently expected. Well, that is almost
too bad, but the skIlful physician is
obliged often to probe deeply, and cut
keenly to affect cure. If have con-
WINGED S. r. that "soft-soap," taffy,
whisky and cigars do not figure very largely
in one campaign fund, then indeed I have
not chastised the brute In vain. When we
have the right on our side. it takes more
than "bell-wether's or donkies" TO deter us
from its vindication. Acting on the old
adage that fools rush in where angels
fear TO tread S. r. has placed himself in
the humilia,ing position of being compelled
to say lit was no affair of his Well. he
is freely forgiven, and in return for his
politeness in terming my poor rhyming

No pitiful bray from brute.

healthy or adulterated dairy products" A
commissioner and an assistant authorized by
the law were appointed to enforce its pro
visions. Tho very interesting report Of the
commissioner will advise you OF his proceed

energetic opposition Of manufacturers and
dealers in the fraudulent product, who at
tackled the law in the courts and by every pos.

able assistant, however, were inoefatigable
and persistent, and as q result OF their efforts
